Qualtrics reviews

CEO is a joke, and mistreats his employees Definitely thinks he's the best thing to happen in tech, but in reality he's a front man for the real brains behind the business who didn't want to be the face of Qualtrics. Met him multiple times, went to his house, won competitions which granted me an audience with him, and even shared multiple projects with him. Despite all our interactions, he still introduced himself to me each time as if we'd never met. Not an isolated scenario - happens to most people who work with him. Self-absorbed, and clueless man. Opportunities are almost zero. Even when you get promoted (if you can), your book of business does not change like they promise - only your quota. Very cutthroat culture Very disjointed departments, lack of communication, and hard to get anything done internally. Other departments will often kill good deals due to incompetence. Management lies to show more positive numbers to their investors, clients, employees, and public. Sub 16% of reps actually hit their quotas each quarter. They are actively firing reps, because they over-hired for a product that is misplaced in the market and has no realistic quantifiable value impact for customers. They still need to show growth for their investors in order to IPO, so they'll still hire college kids to throw into the meat grinder, but you'll notice they've slowed their hiring for the Provo office. Product sucks - SurveyMonkey and other products have caught up to it, and are far cheaper. Management uses scare tactics to keep their employees. They parade around companies nearby who have failed to let people know the grass is not greener. When people leave for better jobs, they slander them - even their best employees. Definitely not how a company should operate. Heavy politics. If you're not Mormon, in "the boys club," or suck up to your boss, you won't get ahead. Recruiters lie to candidates. The money potential and opportunities are not actually there. You could be the smartest, hardest, best sales person out there - but unless you're part of the aforementioned, you will only spin your wheels.

* No Paternity Leave * Vacation days don't roll over (use or lose) * Bro Culture * No investment in employees * Hard to move up * Most management hired from outside * No plan to develop talent internally * Low pay * Bonuses very ambiguous * The recruiting team posts fake reviews on Glassdoor... The Qualtrics culture has shifted in the past while to being like any other tech firms in the area but with lower pay. It's still a fun place to work, but be sure to avoid the many opportunities to be shamed publicly on the internal messaging system. There is a "gratitude" culture that has begun where any questioning of direction/decisions is met with "You should be grateful that the benevolent company has given you this opportunity/chance/event/activity." Another interesting aspect is the severe lack of opportunities to participate in any project that could be a risk to the company. They don't take risks on their employees; there is always a safety net so no one really hits their full potential. It's not somewhere you can walk away from saying "I had some really cool projects that would have failed without me." As mentioned previously, it's a great place to work for a while, but don't expect to stay. They don't make any investment in their employees so at some point you realize that you won't be moving into a leadership role even though you've been scoring wonderfully on your performance reviews. You don't meet the technical bar and there will be no exceptions. Same goes for making a move to Eng without a degree even with years of experience and loyalty to the company. No exceptions. Also, although we have offices around the world don't expect to transfer offices. I've seen it happen twice, and both were under the rug. It's just not something that's allowed.
